I wanted to install Wine and use it to run League of Legends http://beta.na.leagueoflegends.com/ (for if you don't know what it is). Is there a walk-though somewhere I can view and read over for this, if not can someone explain how to get Wine and how to get it up and going for this game? thank you in advance.

From then on, it's luck of the draw. If you're lucky you can run wine on the installer.exe file directly._________________Intel Core i7 2700K@ 4.1GHz/HD3000 graphics/8GB DDR3/180GB SSDWhat am I supposed to be advocating?

1 - Installed wine
2 - Downloaded a base installer depending on your location ( there are more but can't find the names ) because the full one hangs while installing :
*LeagueOfLegendsBaseNA.exe
*LeagueOfLegendsBaseEUW.exe
3 - ran the installer.
4 - made a git clone of loL-Linux-tools
5 - ran it ( it will fix some textures to enable the in-game shop )
6 - Play

If you 'll stick with this , you'll be able to play quickly. others how-to i found were outdated.

dude you're awesome! i'll give this a shot as soon as i have some alone time from the lady ^_^

Quick thing, I installed wine, downloaded the installer though when I run it I have to choose which program to open with. That's when I choose wine right? From there follow the directions from the read-me in the zip for git and is good to-go?

I'm getting weird errors, just going to boot into win7 for now and mess with it later on

Edit: Sooo i got the game working and up but now im having troubles with the texture git. I'm using PlayOnLinux to play the game and used a wine version that was set to run it. When i followed the git instructions and try to execute the command ./lol_linux.py i get a "permission denied" even in root. any suggestions?

EDIT: I think if anything im confused about the "4- made a git clone of loL-Linux-tools" can you explain this to me please? i did find this though, is it relevant? http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Git

I got rid of PlayOnLinux and reinstalled wine, sync'd and updated.. installed league of legends using the base installer and i was able to log in and access the shop, and all.. but when i go to play a game i still have no textures. So i tried the lol_linux_tool_master and this is what im getting now.

Why would you got to all that effort when hon and dota2 is native_________________the table is made from wood. forget what you learnt, the table is made from carbon. forget what you learnt, the table is made from protons. forget what you learnt, the table is made from quarks. forget what you learnt, the table is good for shagging on

i've invested about $300+ in the game since beta and that being said have also been playing it since beta i have a lot of friends in the game that i know personally and some that are from other countries that i've been knowing though out the years of playing. I mean I could just boot into windows 7 and play it, but I'm trying to get it working here so i can go to a full linux operating system. If you could help i'd be greatly appreciated ^_^

fair enough. I did play LoL for some time and did try getting it working on linux quite some time ago.
But when Riot split the regions my account got screwed up and I couldn't migrate it from NA to EU so the account just died. I might try again mind._________________the table is made from wood. forget what you learnt, the table is made from carbon. forget what you learnt, the table is made from protons. forget what you learnt, the table is made from quarks. forget what you learnt, the table is good for shagging on

Since i think you get rid of this now, i can't really say what's wrong with the python error.
I'll say it's not finding any files to download.Try again a few minutes later or check the repository again.Maybe some people were working on it and modified some files.

The texture patch command is supposed to fix the in-game shop.If you 're missing in-game textures , something is wrong.You could try :

Code:

./lol_linux.py repair

PS : i assumed you have edited your Lol_linux.py and wrote the path to your game.

only made mods to the config.py but not the lol_linux.py O_O maybe my error is there, i'll try in a bit. off to work for now, thank you again ryo-san for helping me i'll let you know what happens from there

no worries, i think the guy has a place where i can email or do some sort of communication with him. thank you so much for you time though i will post my results regardless for anyone else who is looking for a way to get league to start on gentoo ^_^

EDIT 1= the architect disabled the use of this tool back in 3.11 due to many errors. I'm still searching for now.
